Firstly I’m running 2,54Ghz-1Gb RAM-HP-scanjet3570c-WinXP-homeSP2.

I’m scanning some of my family photos, but I’m having lots of problems in saving the photos without being distorted.

In the beginning I saved the photos as TIFF-LZW format and when scanning the photos I look’s just great, also when saving there is no problems. Even when opening them right after saving and closing them they still looks alright. But after awhile, when trying to go back and look at them, I getting problems.

In PaintShopPro-8 & 9, some of the pictures have horizontal dotted-stripes (1-2 or3) and some can be seem as thumbnails, but cannot be open and some can’t been seen or open at all.

Then I thought this could be a PaintShopPro -tiff converting problem and Installed Adobe PhotoShop CS(8). When I tried to open the tiff files made I PSP (8or9), even more of them couldn’t be open and I ended up with only between 50-60% of the scanned photos.

Then I started the scanning job once more, but this time I used Adobe PhotoShop CS(8) and used the twain-option with HP scanner software (as done in PaintShopPro) and saved all the files as Photoshop (psd) format. During scanning and saving everything looks alright as earlier, but after finished half of the job. I went back open internal browser for to see the result of the new scanning, but big was my despair when some of the scanned picture behaved and looked strange also this time. Now I don’t have any dotted horizontal stripes, but now I have a bluish picture, with some red horizontal strips and picture is only black and red horizontal vide stripes!!!???

Now I’m really lost and don’t know what to do or what is causing this problems. I have had a scanner for the last 10-13 (3pass) and have never experienced anything like this.

Can anyone try to advise me on hope to get around these problems, or have some links where these problems are discussed?

Could this be something (software/driver) on my PC conflicting with my graphic programs?

HELP – I cannot spend days in scanning my photos and then having go back and do it once more.

Is it possible you have a virus? Sounds like files are effected after being on the system and being opened and closed. That is where I would look. Hope it helps.

Pls. "translate" this. Ccd – wiring hardness – what – where?? :o) NB! Just found some error on my H: drive (deleting orphan file… – deleting index entry…) and are running CHKDSK right now. Mayby a part of my problem!??

Quite possibly.
Reading your first post, I wondered where you were storing he image files, becasue it sure sounds like the media is going bad. All the symptoms (scanning fine, seeing the saved files OK, then getting errors on reading them again) point to the storage media going bad.
So, yes, try doing a re-scan and storing the files on another drive and see if that solves the problem. If it does, the H: drive is the problem.

Change "g" to "a"

But the horizontal dotted stripes on my TIFF files, scanned with PaintShopPro 8-9. Must be another problem, caused by TIFF-save-converter!? Because these files, I can open even though I have these stripes. So right now I scanning and saving as PSD filer. Though this format gives me huge (17-20Mb) files for each 300dpi picture, I will stick to this format until I have figured out what caused these stripes.

So I’m still interesting in having input on horizontals stripes when saving TIFF files:

If you scan an image using PSP, it should show up in PSP as an image, but it hasn’t been saved yet. Are those horizintal stripes there at this point? If so, the problem may be at the scanner.
However, if the saved file is saved both as a TIFF and a PSD file, and only one shows the lines, there may be something wrong with the driver for the TIFF conversion. If so, try reloading PSP, and see if that solves the problem.
Good luck!
